Author Bio

Dean Drawbaugh is the Staff Publisher at Destiny Image Publishing Company. He has spent the last 40 years designing systems, locating resources, and training people to allow more efficient operations. Dean and his Wife Phyllis live in Chambersburg PA.

Dean Drawbaugh helps the reader: locate opportunity, create a plan, and prepare for the challenge in his new book "The Art of Making Things Happen in Your Life." Dean offers specific steps for achieving goals successfully in areas of family, career, relationships, business, and ministry.

Each chapter includes "Self-Assessment Questions" to help you, the reader, to know what you are doing right and where you can improve. An honest appraisal of these thought provoking questions will help you form a response in the "Call to Action" exercises.

Additional pointers are provided for evaluating opportunity, analyzing attitude, adapting change, organization, and time management. I found the final section on team building extremely practical. This is such an important element to the secret of success and is so often overlooked. I was reminded again of the importance of 21 Day principle for re-evaluation of goals, identifying priorities, targeting a small improvement, conducting another evaluation, and targeting another small improvement.

The articulate writing style, short fast moving chapters, and highlighted key points to remember stimulate the reader to quickly capture each concept, assimilate the material, and convert the suggested keys to success into workable action steps.

An amazing model for interactive involvement in a rewarding training experience.
